I am spewin, I am flat broke, its on the same day as the re run of the nostalgias, i guess it doesnt matter since the swap meet starts at 6 and its near the drags but its 5 minutes from my house, i hate to miss this one.
 last year one of the FX-FJ guys kids ran a golf buggy into my LTD and smashed a tail light, the young girl tried to deny it at first but i had a witness, the father of the girl bought me another tail light after a bit of hunting around, these are much rarer than FC holden tail lights.
 is anyone interested in going halves in a site?

ahh yeah, im that broke, i want to sell something to get another packet of smokes, i paid a few bills and accidently spent too much at amercan autos the other night. My ford seems to be chewin heaps of fuel lately too, i took my son to a party the other day just off lancelot st, put in $15 and then went to pick him up and the fuel light came back on. I put in $25 last night and went to work today and the fuel light was back on coming home.

i was going to ebay, but whenever i do i dont see a cent till 2 weeks after i start the auction, by then i will be paid again plus have my mid year bonus, i just want to be able to sell some stuff to get some smokes, milk, bread and $100 for fuel to get me through to pay day.
 i dont even know what ive got but i know there is alot of junk around here as youve seen mark.
 I have a money order for $30 i can cash on saturday, if i can get in i doubt i will be able to take much in my boot, i have some rear sedan doors and stuff, good hk prem bonnet, FE boot lid etc wich are bulky but i probably have enough junk i can take in boxes.

only gaurds that need work.
 I was considering giving up smoking, but now petrol is so dear smoking dont seem a issue anymore, as long as i get a few packets at once, becuase it costs $10 to go to the shop just to buy a $7.95 packet of smokes.

Yeah i went out there, there was still a good turn out considering the drags were on, i had a money order i cashed yesterday with enough to get me in and put in $10 fuel wich ran out, cost $15 to get in, i sold a box off lenses (nos in nasco box), got talked down to ten but offcourse had no change and let it go for $7, the guy said he would get some change and dissapeared, anyway $7 almost covered half my cost for getting in, now i just need 95c to get a packet of smokes but i should probly use it for a train ticket tomorow to get to work.
 i had a set of extractors, 12 port i dropped to $10, a hr hubcap wich had a lot of lookers but couldnt get the $5 i was after, lynx red motor long runner manifold, 2x sets of brand new sets of triple core plug leads to suit holden 6 hei at $7 each in the box, wilsonia amp guage for $15, new in box new old stock stewart warner oil guage for $40, fc standard painted no chrome headlight surround for ten, pair of chrome 13" trim rings for $8, arp chev harmonic balencer bolt i bought for $36 for $25, a pair of eelco cast alloy lakepipes caps new in pack for $30, a oil bath air cleaner for ten, a ek lower back seat cood cond for $2, a unkown new in box ball joint for $1, acl holden 6 acl duralite cam bearings, $5 chrome oil pump cover startedf at $18 dropped to 15, some 50c badges pluce some othe junk, i only lost $8 and a mornig but i wish i kept the money and stayed home and bought smokes.
 maybe i had my prices too high or just didnt pack enough stuff, i still have this stuff taking up space except for one little black & orange box.

yeah, i got there late and was stuck on a dead corner, i think around 9:30 it thinned out, i sold something in the first 5 minutes, then just stood there, i think stuff like arp bolts, stewart warner guages and lakepipes caps were more suited to the crowd that pissed off early  to wsid, couldnt get rid of 12 port extractors for ten bucks or sets of new holden 6 leadsfor $7 and ford 6 leads for $5 in the box, ther was alot more stuff i could have took if i had a trailer.
